I live in Thailand and we pronounce "w" and "v" the same. When I spoke to American people they told me that the "v" sound was different from "w". They told me to move my lower lip to the upper teeth, then say "v", but I don't get it.
I want to know how to pronounce "v" in English. If you can suggest me how to practice it, that would be great!

To English speakers, these sound totally different. In many other languages, 'v' is a voiced bilabial fricative, which, still sounding much like the English 'v', is much closer in articulation to 'w'.
